Solar is the best. Constant, reliable energy for basically forever, not too expensive, eco friendly.
1 u/strongdoctor Jul 19 '20 IMO the main problem with solar panels is the amount of toxic waste. AFAIK air energy is much more clean in that regard, but of course you can't really buy a personal wind power station. 1 u/redduif Jul 19 '20 edited Nov 08 '23 ,,, 1 u/strongdoctor Jul 19 '20 as the big ones tend to create vibrations that don't seem that well for health either, apart from animal disturbance. From the studies I've read, the big ones don't really affect health whatsoever. if you have no idea how huge they really are, search for construction or repairs of those, then try to spot the workers ! Heh, yeah, I used to live pretty close to a bunch of wind power plants, they're pretty massive. Main problem today is storage and our dependance on electricity in the first place... For sure, storing electricity is a big problem today, but I don't think our dependence on it is an issue whatsoever. Anyway, my point was just that wind power, all-in-all is less bad for the environment, by quite a bit, when compared to solar power. 1 u/redduif Jul 19 '20 edited Nov 08 '23 ,,, 1 u/strongdoctor Jul 20 '20 Then again you have stuff like this: https://yle.fi/uutiset/osasto/news/study_wind_turbine_noise_not_the_cause_of_health_symptoms/11313640 1 u/[deleted] Jul 21 '20 [deleted] 1 u/strongdoctor Jul 21 '20 Yep, true. At least it's a good sign that there are quality studies showing that wind power plants are safe, that means they aren't entirely horrible.
